None of his firm’s clients have yet been reimbursed by the tax authority, which in its letter wrote, “sorry for the inconvenience caused”.
When we make a mistake, we are criminals who need our bank account raided. When they make a deliberate systematic bullying action, nothing happens. I am amazed they apologized.Comment

Wow, that's amazing. The IRS used to act like that for ages until a major overhaul in the 90s to make them "friendlier" and a recognition that forcing people to liquidate assets to settle a bill prior to the actual investigation, probably wasn't a very nice thing to do.
I think part of the problem is down to the remit of these organisations. Given the unwillingness to raise taxes, the main means of paying the bills for the current government is cutting social spending and ensuring all taxes owed are collected - necessarily you're going to see a much more agressive attitude from HMRC because there's apparently a half-billion to be made going after "tax dodgers."Last edited by seanraaron; 19 January 2016, 11:32.Comment
